CULTURE—Days indicated represent the time required 
from the setting of plants to produce marketable fruits. One 
‘ounce of seed should produce 2,000-plants. Tomatoes do best 
on light, warm, not over-rich soil. Success depends in a large 
measure upon securing a rapid, vigorous, unchecked growth 
during the early part of the season. For first early tomatoes 
select varieties of the earliest types, and start the plants 
under glass in hot beds or greenhouses during February and 
March. When the plants are about 2 inches high they should 
be transplanted to flats, pots or plant boxes. Never crowd the 
plants, but keep them short and stocky. Plants already in 
bloom, if in pots or boxes, may be transplanted to the open 
ground without disturbing their roots, and will continue to 
bloom and fruit without check. When danger from frost has 
passed, set the plants in the field in rows about 4 feet apart 
each way, in warm, mellow soil of fair fertility. For main 
crop the plants can be started somewhat later in hot beds or 
cold frames and then set in the open ground the same as the 
early varieties. Tomatoes require very little water, just 
enough to keep them in good growing condition; too much 
water will cause them to blight. Cultivate often and thor- 
oughly as long as the vines will permit. The last two or 
three workings of the soil should be shallow or the crop 
may be badly injured.
